GUEST,MICK FELDER Origins: Coming of the Roads (Billy Edd Wheeler) (34) Origins: COMING OF THE ROADS 03 Sep 06

"COMING OF THE ROADS" BY BILLY ED WHEELER HAS ONE OF THE MOST BEAUTIFUL AND HAUNTING MELODIES HEARD IN FOLK MUSIC. I'VE EVEN PERFORMED IT ON THE PIANO AT WEDDINGS.

BUT I'VE ALWAYS FELT THAT THE LYRICS WERE IN NO WAY COMPARABLE TO THE MELODY. IT SOUNDS AS IF IT WAS A TRADITIONAL TUNE. DOES ANYONE KNOW FOR SURE IF MR. WHEELER WROTE THE MELODY AS WELL AS THE LYRICS.
